The asking price first season in my save was 50 mil, and it's only gone up since then. It would be over 100 mil now.

Problem is that Dortmund renew his contract every 2 years or so as well.

i think mine was around 35 but thought i should move for him next season but obviously that plan didn't work lol
 
I waited till my reputation was quite high and started praising him once or twice a year, he tended to react well to me saying I respect everything he does on and off the pitch. After 3 years of doing this I noticed on the info screen I was listed as one of his favorite personnel! Roughly at this time dortmund were struggling and goetze got unhappy, my bid was rejected which made him want to leave straight away. The only stumbling block for me is the asking price, they want 100m! So I'm either going sell on some of my stars (Hamsik, Cavani, Hazard, Podolski, Walcott, Wilshere,Aguero) and give them what they want or just wait till his contract runs out.
 
Try adding a clause for international appearances, say, 200M after 1 appearance. Because he's German, he'll never play a game for Germany due to their national team not being able to contain real players.

I have no idea if that actually works or not, I figure it might make Dortmund lower the initial price they want for him.

good luck to that ...i would keep ur players well mabe walcott and podolski can go lol but 100m ??? i never thought they would ask that much that means the best thing to do is get him to your team as early as possible which means i would have to start my save again :/

Hahah yep same with me.

I though "oh I'll move him down the track when his contract is close to expiry" but Dortmund are always so careful to renew it!

And IMO Gotze is not worth 100 mil. Nobody is. You could buy Ganso + Neymar + Hazard with that money.

He means SI's fake.lnc file, which prevents any German national from being called into the squad, because it's impossible.

Maybe you should try reading what I actually said. But I'll try and put it simpler.

SI never got the rights to the German National Team, so it can't use real players on FM12. Try looking at the German squad sometime, you'll see it's just a bunch of fake players. So Gotze will never play a game for the national team on FM12.

It's essentially taking advantage of a flaw in the game. Plus, I don't even know if it helps, but you may aswell try.

What the guy above me said.

It works.
 
Tried it just then. Didn't work for me!

Offered 30 mil upfront and 200 mil after 1 int appearance. Flat out rejection.

ohh right i thought they sorted this problem out already it was the same thing when i was playing 2011
 
is ther any way of getting him cheaper like before he starts getting expensive ????

Most likely but i bought him in 2017, had started trying to get him the year before and i could never get it under 120m, finally when i offered what i did they accepted despite the last negotiation they said they wanted 128m.
 
TBH, Gotze is so expensive, nut if you wait until halfway through the 2nd season, or at the end of June, you can sign Kagawa on a free transfer, who is just as good IMO, and his wage is easier to agree.

when is kagawa on a free ??? second season ???? i might start again and make a save and try to get him as my first player

Yeah, end of second season his contract expires. He usually declares he is leaving on a free, but I would get him on your shortlist well before, so you do not get Juve or someone signing before you get in there.

ok im on tha already. what about this whole gotze thing ??? do you hink i should get him and he begining of he season ??? since hes on a cheep a the begining ??
 
ive just read everyones post and it seems to me unless you get him early you will have to end up paying 100m or somethink which i think its unrealistic because we all know that hes worth at least 30-40m irl also irl dont think he is the player everyone makes out to be , hes more of player like juan mata than a messi type.
